ESAB Precision Plasmarc® Plasma Power Sources
ESAB's new EPP series of plasma power sources includes 200, 300, 400, and 600 amp models. All feature a wide operating current range that allows plasma marking and cutting to be accomplished with the same torch and power supply. All EPP power sources feature a highly efficient, high-power factor design for the most efficient use of electrical input power. With high power efficiency, and power factors in the 91-95% range, you’ll save money on input power. All ESAB plasma power supplies feature a 3-year limited warranty.
m3 Flow Control
ESAB was the first to use electronically controlled proportional valves in a plasma gas control system. In yet another break-through in plasma system design, the m3 Flow Control is the first plasma system to use Mass Flow Control (MFC) devices to provide the most accurate, repeatable gas flow control in the industry. The m3 system also breaks new ground by offering the ability to select and mix shield gases to produce optimum cut quality on any material.
Breakthrough Torch Design
The PT - 36 mechanized cutting torch uses advanced "dry cutting" technology and precision machined components to provide precision cut quality, long consumable life, and fast cutting speeds. The patented Posi-Thread design simplifies consumable installation and eliminates the worry of damaged threads on the electrode, electrode holder and torch body. The torch does not require an expensive water chiller for cooling water, which reduces power and maintenance costs. This combination of accurate straight or bevel cutting, longer consumable life, better cut quality and high cutting speeds produces high throughput and lower overall costs than any competitive system.
Automated Control
The m3 system features the most advanced gas control system in the industry, fully automated by ESAB's Vision CNC. Great flexibility in selection and mix of shield gases allows an operator to produce the best cut quality on any material. Simply select the material type and thickness, and the Vision CNC automatically selects and mixes the optimal start, cut and shield gas combination. Process parameters for most plasma cutting and marking applications are preloaded in the Vision CNC, and custom parameter files ca be easily created as needed.
